A Chorus Line Parade Performance

They did "One". Pretty good, but why couldn't they wear their gold costumes??

Yuka Takara & Charlotte D'Amboise didn't performance(replaced by Aravena & Isenegger). And did anyone else think Jessica Goldyn may have been out too. It didn't look like her, but then it didn't look like her understudy either(Pamela Fabello).


And does anyone know if Yuka Takara is alright?? She's been out for a long time.

"...why couldn't they wear their gold costumes??"

I wonder if it was because of the threat of rain?

It was GREAT!! Spamalot is on right now. I didn't really care for the Grinch, or the Color Purple.

John Cullum and Patrick Page were out of The Grinch. And the little kids couldn't lip synche for their lifes. Neither could The Color Purple Cast.

Chorus Line was good.

Spamalot was good but I was looking forward to see how Jonathan Hadary was but he just sat there the whole time. They cut out a couple of parts.

The Rockettes are on now. and they just showed a commercial for "You're the one That I Want" that new Grease/Aerican Idol thing. And they're treating it like the movie when everyone should know the movie and the broadway show aren't the same.

That looked like Jessica Lee Goldyn to me. I think she just had her hair tied back. My mom caught that it wasn't Charlotte right away. Yuka has been out for close to two weeks now...that can't be good.

As for the gold outfits, I'm sure they didn't want their 2,500 dollar hats out in the rain. However, it looked like ACL got the best weather out of all the broadway performances so far.

How many of the shows that performed have shows tonight? I think ACL does and that's got to be a very long day.

I was really disappointed with the horrible musical button at the end of the song. Ew.

Of course that was Jess. If Jess is out, she's most likely in the hospital. Even then, she finished her show first.

The rain, the rain. Hair pulled back. Spoke to her before and after. The rehearsal looked like a water ballet. Home with family now for Thanksgiving dinner before the evening performance.

I usually don't get POed. It takes A LOT to make me upset. But this has.

It's Thanksgiving. Charlotte has two children, a husband and her foot has been bothering her. Perhaps she and the family left NYC for the Holiday. Maybe one or both of the kids/she/Terrence is ill. Maybe, just maybe, her family means more than singing for two minutes in the rain. Maybe something happened and she couldn't make it at the last minute.

You are all falling over yourselves with concern about Yuka- she could have shown up as well. No one is putting HER down. Everyone is worried for her (as am I.)

Did it occur to any of you that something MAY have happened to Charlotte/someone in her family because she was there when they blinked for two seconds with Ellen.

I am sooooo tired of *every* thread that has ACL in the title turning into a "How can we criticize Charlotte? What did Charlotte do wrong? Charlotte SuXs!!" discussion.

Thank you for sharing the picture. Oh... and Happy Thanksgiving.

Yuka is injured. She is a tough cookie and will be back soon.

And everyone is allowed personal days....even thanksgiving.

And so you're saying that EVERYONE else in the cast wouldn't have rather been home with their families celebrating the holidays? It's a gift to be able to perform in the parade.

Wait, is Charlotte married to Terrance Mann, from Cats, Les Miz, and the ACL 80's film?

Yep!

I am kind of glad that it wasn't Charlotte, because when I was watching I was thinking "WOW! Charlotte looks really different from how she did two weeks ago, and not in a good way"
